Description

Technical Field

[0001] This specification relates to intelligent control technology in one or more embodiments, and more particularly to an automatic cleaning method, apparatus and electronic device for a box seal detector. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette factories typically use automatic box-sealing machines to package cigarette cartons. During normal operation, after a photoelectric detector detects the cigarette box, a pusher pushes a certain number of cigarette cartons into the box, and then a pusher pushes the box out, automatically retracting the pusher afterward. The production line in the packaging workshop generates a significant amount of dust, which frequently accumulates on the photoelectric detector, causing false detections. This results in the pusher moving, scattering the cigarette cartons and even breaking some of them. Currently, workers manually clean the boxes when false detections are detected, which is labor-intensive, inefficient, and results in significant cigarette waste. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this specification describes an automatic cleaning method, apparatus, and electronic device for a box seal detector through one or more embodiments.

[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] In the following description, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The following description provides multiple embodiments of this application, which can be substituted or combined with each other. Therefore, this application can also be considered to include all possible combinations of the same and / or different embodiments described. Thus, if one embodiment includes features A, B, and C, and another embodiment includes features B and D, then this application should also be considered to include embodiments containing one or more other possible combinations of A, B, C, and D, even if such embodiments are not explicitly described in the following text.

[0041] The following description provides examples and does not limit the scope, applicability, or examples set forth in the claims. Changes may be made to the function and arrangement of the described elements without departing from the scope of this application. Various processes or components may be appropriately omitted, substituted, or added to the examples. For example, the described methods may be performed in a different order than described, and various steps may be added, omitted, or combined. Furthermore, features described with respect to some examples may be combined into other examples.

[0042] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an automatic cleaning method for a box seal detector provided in an embodiment of this application. In this embodiment, the method includes:

[0043] S101. Determine the first duration and the second duration corresponding to the target workshop, and determine the target number of times in the current monitoring cycle based on the first duration and the second duration.

[0044] Wherein, the first duration is the duration of the last workshop cleaning between the target vehicle distances, and the second duration is the workshop working time within the first duration.

[0045] The entity executing this application may be a cloud server.

[0046] In the embodiments of this specification, the probability of dust accumulation on the sealing detector is closely related to the working hours of the workshop and the cleaning frequency of the sealing detector. This application will not clean the sealing detector at fixed time intervals or frequencies, but will first determine the first and second durations of the target workshop requiring automatic cleaning of the sealing detector. The first duration is the time elapsed since the last workshop cleaning. The longer this duration, the more dust may accumulate in the workshop, and the higher the probability of dust accumulation on the sealing detector. The second duration is the actual working hours of the workshop within the first duration. Since the target workshop is not necessarily operating 24 hours a day, different working hours correspond to different production intensities. The higher the production intensity, the more dust will accumulate in the target workshop in the subsequent time, which will also increase the probability of dust accumulation on the sealing detector. Therefore, the cloud server will set different target counts for the current monitoring cycle based on the first and second durations. The time interval between two adjacent cleanings of the sealing detector can be considered a monitoring cycle, and the target count can be the number of times the cigarette box pusher performs its standard action. In order to improve the efficiency of data processing and reduce the computing resources occupied by the cloud server for monitoring the cleaning process of the sealing processor, this application will not simply use the time interval since the last cleaning to determine whether cleaning is needed, but will use the target number of times. This is because, on the one hand, the time interval needs to continuously occupy computing resources for monitoring, and on the other hand, the actual working time of the target workshop can be different within the same time interval, which makes the probability of dust on the sealing detector different in reality. The time interval cannot accurately indicate whether the sealing detector really needs to be cleaned. Using the target number of times as the judgment standard has two advantages. First, the cigarette box push rod can only perform the standard action when the target workshop is in operation, so the target number itself can reflect how long the target workshop has been working. Second, the target number is determined based on the first and second time periods, rather than a fixed value, which is more in line with the actual production situation of the target workshop. Therefore, the target number can more accurately represent the dust situation that may be on the sealing detector. It is generally believed that after the target number is reached, the probability of dust on the sealing detector is relatively high, or even that the sealing detector has a certain amount of dust, but it has not caused false detection. However, if it is not cleaned, the probability of false detection will be relatively high, and at this time the sealing detector needs to be cleaned.

[0047] Furthermore, the mapping relationship between the first duration, the second duration, and the target number of times can be set by staff based on their experience. That is, staff can pre-set different target number of times for different first and second durations, and build a database based on this data. The longer the first and second durations, the fewer the target number of times should be. In practice, the cloud server only needs to query the database based on the determined first and second durations to obtain the corresponding target number of times. Additionally, the first and second durations can be obtained by the cloud server by querying historical work data records from the target workshop.

[0048] In one possible implementation, determining the first duration and the second duration corresponding to the target workshop includes:

[0049] A first duration is determined based on the historical cleaning records of the target workshop, and a second duration is determined based on the first duration and the historical work records of the target workshop.

[0050] In the embodiments described in this specification, the target workshop typically leaves corresponding historical records during its various production activities for future reference. Therefore, the cloud server can directly determine the first duration by querying the target workshop's historical cleaning records. Similarly, the cloud server can also determine the target workshop's historical working time through its historical work records, and then determine the second duration by combining the overlapping time periods between the working time and the first duration.

[0051] S102. Whenever the sealing detector detects an obstruction signal, the smoke box push rod is controlled to perform a standard action once, and the cumulative number is incremented by one after the standard action is completed.

[0052] The standard action includes one push-out action and one retraction action.

[0053] In the embodiments described in this specification, when the cigarette box moves to the position of the sealing detector, the sealing detector will detect an obstruction signal due to the cigarette box's obstruction. After receiving the obstruction signal detected by the sealing detector, the cloud server will generate corresponding control information to control the cigarette box pusher to perform a standard action, namely, an extension action and a retraction action. The cloud server stores a cumulative count, which is reset to zero at the beginning of each monitoring cycle, and incremented by one each time the cigarette box pusher completes a standard action.

[0054] As an example, such as Figure 2As shown, the sealing detector can be a photoelectric detector. The photoelectric detector detects the cigarette box 1 via fiber optic connector 2. When the cigarette box 1, conveyed by the conveyor belt, reaches the position of the photoelectric sensor, the sealing detector detects an obstruction signal. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt stops, holding the cigarette box 1 in place. Then, the cloud server can control the cigarette box pusher to perform a standard action, pushing the cigarettes into the cigarette box. The conveyor belt can stop automatically after the cloud server receives the obstruction signal, or the corresponding controller can estimate the time it takes for each cigarette box to reach a designated location based on its position on the conveyor belt, and then control the conveyor belt accordingly. Alternatively, a camera can capture images of a designated area; once a cigarette box is detected in the real-time image captured by the camera, the cloud server will control the conveyor belt to stop.

[0055] In one possible implementation, the control smoke box push rod performs a standard action, including:

[0056] The smoke box push rod is controlled to perform one push-out action based on a first speed, and the smoke box push rod is controlled to perform one retraction action based on a second speed, wherein the first speed is less than the second speed.

[0057] In this embodiment, the cloud server controls the cigarette box pusher to perform a standard action as soon as the sealing detector detects an obstruction signal. However, as mentioned earlier, if dust adheres to the fiber optic head of the sealing detector, causing a false detection, an obstruction signal will also be generated. To minimize damage to the cigarette packs caused by this situation, the cloud server controls the cigarette box pusher to perform the standard action at different speeds for the pushing and retracting movements. The first speed of the pushing movement is slower than the second speed of the retracting movement. This allows the cigarette box pusher to push out at a relatively slow speed, enabling the cloud server to determine whether the cigarette box has reached the correct position before the cigarette pack is completely pushed out. Thus, if the cigarette box is not in the correct position, the cloud server can promptly stop the cigarette box pusher to prevent the cigarette pack from being crushed and damaged. The cloud server can determine whether the cigarette box has reached the correct position in various ways, such as by checking if the conveyor belt has stopped or by using real-time images captured by a camera.

[0058] In one possible implementation, the method further includes:

[0059] During the process of the cigarette box push rod performing the pushing action, the real-time speed of the conveyor belt used to transport the cigarette box is obtained;

[0060] When the real-time speed does not become zero within the target duration, the smoke box push rod is controlled to stop performing the standard action and a warning message is generated. The target duration is less than the third duration, which is calculated based on the maximum push distance of the push action and the first speed.

[0061] In the embodiments described in this specification, the cloud server also acquires the real-time speed of the conveyor belt while controlling the cigarette box pusher to perform the pushing action. Normally, if the cigarette box is actually conveyed to the designated position, the conveyor belt will stop moving to allow the cigarette box pusher to push all the cigarettes into the cigarette box. Therefore, if the sealing sensor triggers the cigarette box pusher's pushing action due to a false detection caused by dust, then during the pushing action of the cigarette box pusher, the real-time speed of the conveyor belt will not decrease to 0. The cloud server will determine that the operation of this standard action is abnormal based on the real-time speed of the conveyor belt and will promptly control the cigarette box pusher to stop its action. The target duration should be set less than the time required for the cigarette box pusher to extend to its maximum length during the pushing action. This ensures timely stopping in case of abnormalities and prevents the cigarettes from being completely pushed out and falling onto the conveyor belt.

[0062] In one possible implementation, the method further includes:

[0063] Record the entry time of each smoke box entering the conveyor belt, and calculate the working time range of the smoke box push rod based on the real-time speed, each entry time, and the moving distance of the conveyor belt inlet from the smoke box push rod;

[0064] Based on the stated working time range, set standard action execution permissions for the smoke box push rod.

[0065] In the embodiments described in this specification, to ensure the correctness of each movement of the cigarette box pusher, the cloud server can also set execution permissions for the cigarette box pusher. Execution permissions can be divided into two types: executable and non-executable. Specifically, the cloud server records the entry time of the cigarette box into the conveyor belt, combines the distance between the conveyor belt entry position and the cigarette box pusher, and the real-time speed of the conveyor belt to calculate the time it takes for each cigarette box to be conveyed to the cigarette box pusher position. Then, based on a preset error, it constructs the corresponding arrival time range for each cigarette box. Next, based on these arrival time ranges, an overall working time range can be constructed. Only within the working time range will the cigarette box pusher be granted executable permissions.

[0066] In one possible implementation, setting standard action execution permissions for the smoke box pusher based on the working time range includes:

[0067] Set the standard action execution permission of the smoke box push rod within the working time range as an executable permission;

[0068] Set the standard action execution permission of the smoke box push rod outside the working time range to an unexecutable permission.

[0069] In the embodiments described in this specification, the cloud server sets the execution permission of standard actions within the working time range as executable permission, and sets the execution permission of standard actions outside the working time range as non-executable permission. In this way, even if an action is triggered due to dust outside the working time range, the smoke box push rod cannot perform the corresponding action because it does not have the executable permission.

[0070] S103. When the cumulative number of times reaches the target number of times, the solenoid valve connected to the air pipe is controlled to open for a preset time, and the cumulative number of times is reset to enter the next monitoring cycle.

[0071] The outlet of the air duct is aligned with the sealing detector.

[0072] In the embodiments described in this specification, once the cloud server detects that the cumulative count has reached the target count, the cloud server will consider that the probability of the sealing detector being contaminated with dust is very high, and cleaning is required. At this time, if... Figure 2 As shown, the cloud server also generates corresponding control information to open the solenoid valve connected to the air duct 3, allowing air to blow from the outlet of air duct 3 for a preset duration. Simultaneously, the cloud server resets the accumulated count to zero and enters the next monitoring cycle. Depending on the production plan of the target workshop, the first and second durations for each new production cycle may differ, resulting in different target counts each time. This ensures that the determined target count matches the actual situation in the target workshop at that time, guaranteeing timely cleaning of the sealing detector.

[0073] In one possible implementation, after the solenoid valve connected to the air duct has been open for a preset time, the system further includes:

[0074] Within a preset angle range, the azimuth angle of the outlet of the air guide tube relative to the sealing detector is adjusted based on a preset angle range.

[0075] In the embodiments of this specification, although the bracket 4 fixes the air duct and the sealing detector, the outlet position of the air duct can be adjusted by connecting a motor or other means. To avoid the air duct blowing in the same direction each time, causing a small amount of dust to accumulate diagonally on the sealing detector, which could eventually trigger a signal blockage due to excessive dust accumulation at that location, this application controls the movement of the air duct after each air blowing to adjust the azimuth angle between the air duct and the sealing detector. This avoids dust residue accumulation at a certain position on the sealing detector, further preventing false detections.
